Chapter 25: Amazement

Meanwhile...

Max: "Calm down, please!"

The elderly are in a panic after witnessing what Max did, but don't know that Max did it

Lucas: "H-Hey!"

Max checks the time.

Max: "Well normally I'd try to stick around, but I'd better get going!"

Max and Shoma shuffle their way towards the front door.

Meanwhile...

Spencer: "Yeah, I've acquired the power of anime and justice."

Spencer's co-workers thought was Spencer was doing was the best thing ever.

Co-Worker 1: "Bro, go take the rest of the day off."

Spencer: "What about my shift?"

Spencer checks the time.

Spencer: "(awkwardly) Oh..."

Co-Worker 2: "We tip our hats to you."

Spencer heads for the door.

Spencer: "So you aren't confused about me fighting the military?"

Co-Worker 3: "You think we like what's going through their heads?"

Spencer: "Fair enough."

Spencer walks out and gives Dawn a quick shake.

Dawn: "(drowsy) Huh?"

Spencer: "We're heading over to my base."

Dawn gets up.

Dawn: "(yawning) Already?"

They head out for the base.

Meanwhile...

Jay: "(in awe) This place is beautiful."

Jacob is getting a lot of praise for what he and Jay did outside.

Boss: "That was beautiful rookie."

Jacob: "(awkwardly) Y-Yeah."

Co-Worker 1: "Look, that was the best show we've ever seen!"

Co-Worker 2: "How'd you do that?!"

Jacob: "(awkwardly) It's, u-um, you could say-"

Boss: "No need to worry yourself with that."

He checks the time.

Boss: "Your shift is over."

Jay: "In style."

Jay is leaning against the door, holding it open.

Jacob: "S-See you t-tomorrow!"

Jacob darts out the door, with Jay following.

Meanwhile...

CJ: "Thank you, thank you, I'll be here until I eventually quit."

Everyone is going bananas over CJ's fight.

Customer 1: "How did you do that?"

CJ: "With pure skill."

Rose is just enjoying the, "not sweating."

Rose: "(relieved) Finally, no sun."

CJ checks the time.

CJ: "Sorry Rose, but we've gotta go."

CJ heads for the door.

Rose: "(awkwardly) Great."

Rose awkwardly follows.

Meanwhile...

Risa: "So Micheal, Zack, Kyle, and Tori are already there?"

Denton, Risa, and Yukiko are walking through the cheering streets.

Denton: "Pretty much. I was just out here making money to help reconstruction and refurbishing of the base."

Yukiko: "Wow."

Denton: "The military has been after everyone at the base, my friends, and me for just over a week."

Risa: "Must be rough."

Denton: "I love anime."

Yukiko: "I'm sold!"

Meanwhile...

Lariat: "Strange."

Phillip has just wrapped up his shift.

Phillip: "I know, right?"

Lariat: "Someone greater than us. Sounds like a fleeting fantasy."

They're heading for base.

Two hours later...

Jacob: "Hey!"

The six who were out working have met up not too far away from base.

Max: "You guys got saved too?"

The seven of the Creations who have joined the battle are meeting for the first time.

Shoma: "H-Hi, I'm Shoma and he's Lucas."

Yukiko: "You full blooded Japanese?"

Shoma: "Y-Yeah."

They're almost at base.

Jay: "(sighing) Talk about a crowd."

The others notice them.

Jack: "(smiling) Hey! It's Jay!"

They've arrived at base.

Rox: "Lariat!"

Everyone decides to take a break.

Lariat: "So this is your base."

Spencer: "Welcome to Casa de Banana."

Connor: "We don't have a name for this place."

Bryant: "Oof."

Everyone takes a seat against a wall.

Alphonse: "How's life?"

Rose: "The sun."

Ike creates a mist in the area.

Bell: "You could use it."

Owen: "So uh..."

Jeremy: "Who's going to explain?"

Phillip: "What?"

Zack: "(awkwardly) We were attacked."

CJ: "Same."

Connor: "Say what now?"

Dawn: "(yawning) I'm not explaining."

Everyone begins to share their stories.

However...

Horus: "This confirms a theory of mine Soalious."

Horus is examining the data from the latest scuffle with the being from Owen's universe.

Soalious: "Really? Because I don't see anything."

Horus: "Different numbers of Creations were pulled from your universes to here, meaning that different Catalysts have varying connections to their Creations."

The three prisoners wearing one of each of the three items CJ wears walk in.

Master Key: "Then that means that the number of Creations for one Catalyst has some connection to their strength?"

Horus: "Yes Kurtis, but I don't think it completely confirms it."

Master Soul: "How so?"

Horus: "Well Lillian, it seems that the feats capable in your worlds also play a factor."

He reviews some of Jacob's data.

Horus: "He doesn't have the most Creations here, but his offensive and defensive capabilities are way beyond say..."

He reviews Spencer's data.

Horus: "... his."

Gears of Fate: "Great, that's a lot of factors to keep in mind."

Horus: "Yes Zion, that's what makes them even more powerful."

Horus begins to snicker.

Horus: "Their unpredictable potential is their biggest strength, yet it's their greatest flaw."

Meanwhile...

Lucas: "Well, be glad to know that we're ready to help."

Everyone knows about exactly what just went down at all ends.

Jacob: "(dramatically) No where is safe."

Awkward moment of silence as the sun begins to set...

Eryth: "Yeah..."

They all notice the sun.

Isaac: "Eh, who cares?"

Jacob: "(panicking) I care!"

Owen: "You need to go?"

Max: "Yeah, but really Jacob?"

Jacob has already started booking it.

Jacob: "(in the distance) Yes really!"

The others stand up.

CJ: "See you tomorrow to make the next plans."

Tori: "Alright."

They all head home for the day...
